Gout, like any disease, negatively affects the quality of life.
Most often, the problem is caused by poor nutrition.
Nutritionist Igor Strokov spoke about this in more detail, writes “ Medic.Forum ”.
If you choose an inappropriate diet without consulting a specialist, you can worsen the condition.
As the doctor noted, a fivefold increase in attacks occurs if you choose a type of food that is rich in purines.
The expert explained that foods high in purines include seafood, fatty fish and yeast extract.
Some vegetables are rich in this element. It is also necessary to reduce the amount of food of animal origin.
Strokov, in order to reduce the amount of accumulated uric acid in the body, advised eliminating offal from the diet, for example, liver and heart. It is also necessary to give up pheasant, rabbit and venison.
Sweet breads, yeast bread and beer will be harmful.
You need to eliminate drinks with fructose.
Crabs, mussels, crabs, shrimp, herring, sprats, trout, mackerel and anchovies with caviar will also have to be excluded from the diet of those who suffer from gout.
As the doctor emphasizes, it is necessary to remember about a balanced diet to avoid gout.
